The Mirror 37 Q9ur School Zlauuse Our school house is a two-story brick building of nine rooms. It was erected in INNO and has been repaired and improved several times since. Ol course, there is a basement where the Manual 'liraiuing' shop and Domestic Science laboratory are placed: besides the janitor's own private office. On the lower rloor the primary children begin their journey on the road of learn- ing. The granunar grades and the high school are on the second lloor. The class rooms and science laboratory are there too. The present Assembly room was built in the summer of I9Io, In it there is room for seating about one hundred people. .Xt the back of the room the school library is kept, usually in disorder, where a book may be found without wasting any time. Across the front of the room a stage has been built for occasional amateur theatricals but principally to give the pre- siding teacher a good View of the whole room. The most enjoyable feature of the Assembly room is the long row of big windows on the east side where the worthy Seniors sit and indulge in occasional fits of laughter at the acro- batic stunts pulled on in the adjoining pasture. -M.-XRGUERITTE ROADES, '20.

Somehow the book was not at all interesting, so laying it aside she wan- dered down to the brook. Un the bank lay a bottle, and a happy thought struck her. Back to the house she Ilew for a pencil and paper. Now, for some fun, thought she. 011 returning she wrote for about ten minutes, then, reading it over to see if it suited her, she put it in the bottle, corked it tightly and threw it in the creek. About a week later 'lack Frederick, a young farmer, was standing on the bank of the same creek, only ten miles down stream. He had been working in the field and had come to drink of the cool, clear water. lust as he leaned over the bank his eye caught sight of a bottle with a paper in it. Taking it out he read: Miss Lillian Anson, Pekin, Illinois.-I am a young lady quite rich and lonesome. I have brown eyes and hair and am quite good-looking. XVon't you come play with me?

As he put his hand in his pocket it came in contact with a cook-book that a neighbor woman had given to give to a friend in town. Miss Lillian noticed the movement and bang! the door was shut in his face. Annice on the other side of the porch had been rolling in mirth, but now feeling rather sorry for him, she came forward. Aunty hates book agents worse than snakes, sir, so you will have to excuse her. Is there any- thing I can do for you? The thing was clear to lack now, he saw who had played the trick, and his quick thought saved him. XYhy yes, madam. I have a very good cook-book that I am sel1ing'.
